The Stories We Could Tell

Tom Petty - Stories We Could Tell

Talking to myself again
Wondering if this traveling is good
Is there something better we'd be doing if we could
And oh the stories we could tell
And if this all blows up and goes to hell
I can still see us sittin on the bed in some motel
Listening to the stories we could tell

And if you ever wonder why you ride this carousel
You did it for the stories you could tell
And oh the stories we could tell
And if this all blows up and goes to hell
I can still see us sittin on the bed in some motel
Listening to the stories we could tell...

This song runs through my head as I sit here on a cold night editing and uploading travel pictures. I do it because I have a story to tell. I travel so that I will have stories to tell. I love sharing my story through pictures.

I’ve been exploring a variety of motorcycle related pictures on Flickr lately. I set up my account in the spring, wanting an easy way to upload and share pics, but I hadn't looked around the site much. What a wealth of groups and keywords to explore! I’ve been key wording my pictures more so that others can find them - K75, Motorcycle, Travel, mother, daughter etc. I’ve joined a few groups to share my pics with people of similar interest. I wonder what the members of “Mothers and Daughters” think of the new motorcycle pictures? There are many hits for motorcycle groups. Women on Motorcycles is hit or miss, too many nudes draping on bikes, but also real women riders, I decided to post there in hopes of encouraging more real woman riders to do the same maybe we can push out the posers. Plenty of BMW Motorcycles here and here Adventure MC Club . Bunch of Rounders in the Winter MC Riding

Speaking of stories, I'm finishing up a story for Outdoor Woman Magazine. It's my first attempt at writing for a non-motorcycling audience. It's been a challenge to keep my audience in mind.
